Modelling and Simulate a Cam and Follower Assembly (Solid Edge ST9 Tutorial)

Serial No. 43

Modelling and Simulate a Cam and Follower Assembly (Solid Edge ST9 Tutorial)

In this video we will display how to create and simulate a ‘Cam and Follower’ assembly using ‘Solid Edge ST9’ software. Initially we will show the way to create cam and follower parts and then we will place them in assembly. For creating animation of the assembly we will apply relationships between the two parts like Planner Align, Mate and Cam. Next we will apply Rotational Motor command over Cam. To display simulation of the assembly we will activate Simulate Motor command.

The Cam and Follower part files are taken from the book ‘Mastering Autodesk Inventor’.

To understand the video easily, focus over places where we have given mouse pause. This is done so as the viewers can easily read the tooltips.

Cam and Follower - Modelling and Motion Simulation (Video Tutorial) Siemens NX 10

Serial No. 23

Cam and Follower - Modelling and Motion Simulation (Video Tutorial) Siemens NX 10

In this video we will display how to create and simulate a ‘Cam and Follower’ assembly. Initially we will show the way to create cam and follower parts next we will place them in assembly. To animate this assembly we will use Motion Simulation Application of Siemens NX where we will apply different joints like Slider, Revolute and Curve on Curve constraint.

Transcription of Video

Display of motion in ‘Cam and Follower’ through Dynamic Simulation

1. Click the New icon under the Work tab in the Welcome Screen of Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013.
2. Select Metric Template in the Create New File Dialogue Box.
3. Create a Standard (mm).iam Assembly file.
4. Save it with the name ‘Cam and Follower-Dynamic Simulation’.
5. Select Place component from the marking menu and place the ‘Cam’ in the Assembly.
6. Align the Cam in correct position by using View Cube.
7. Set the current view as Home View by using the toggle next to View Cube.
8. Select the Cam in the design window and remove its ‘Grounded’ position from the context menu.
9. Click the Degrees of Freedom icon in the Visibility Panel of View Tab.
10. At present there are six Degrees of Freedom in Cam and it can be moved in any direction in the Assembly.
11. Apply an Axis Mate between the Z Axis of Assembly and Z Axis of Cam.
12. Apply a Flush Mate between the XY Plane of Assembly and upper most front face (Red coloured) of Cam.
13. Now this time only one ‘Degrees of Freedom’ persist and Cam can be moved only on its Z Axis.
14. Place the ‘Follower’ in the Assembly.
15. Re-orient the Follower against the Cam using Rotate Component Tool.
16. Apply a Flush Mate between the upper most front face (Red coloured) of Cam and face of small pulley (Black coloured) of Follower.
17. Apply a Mate Constraint between YZ Plane of Assembly and YZ Plane of Follower.
18. Activate the Dynamic Simulation Tool from the Begin Panel of Environments Tab.
19. Click the view Tab and change the View of the model to ‘Shaded with Edges’ in the Visual Style drop down.
20. Activate Insert Joint from the Marking menu.
21. Select ‘Sliding: Cylinder Curve’ from the drop down menu of Insert Joint dialog box.
22. Select the outer edge of Cam in ‘Curve’ selection option and select circular edge of small pulley of Follower in ‘Cylinder’ selection option.
23. Click OK.
24. Select Revolution:1 joint in the Browser under the Standard Joints folder, right click and select Properties from the context menu.
25. Click dof 1 (R) tab and select Edit imposed motion button and check the Enable imposed motion option.
26. Click the arrow to expand the input choices, and click Constant Value.
27. Enter the value 360*2 deg/s and click Ok.
28. In Simulation Player fill the value 400 in the Images field area.
29. Clear the screen by activating the Clean Screen command.
30. Click Run in the Simulation Player to display motion in Cam and Follower.
